Page 106 - 21 Distinctions of Wealth: Attract the Abundance You Deserve - PDFDrive.com

The majority of us would say that the most important thing in life is love, but when it comes to what else we value, we're all very different. Some people greatly prize adventure and the ability to travel. Others would like to have a life that's abundant with relationships. You may highly esteem learning, owning a large and beautiful home, having access to nature, or living a simple lifestyle. Whatever your values are, don't let worries about money distract you from what's most important to you. Replace your fear with faith that you'll be able to attain what you value. Faith, which is a positive emotion, will draw to you what you desire.

Do you wish you had more money to spend the way you'd like to?" Or you might ask them, "What is it about my business model that makes you so uncomfortable?" You might help them discover the hidden beliefs that are preventing them from manifesting wealth in their own lives or enjoying and sharing the abundance they have. Furthermore, their answers might help you clarify your own values and feel even more confident about your decisions.
I don't believe there's one correct way to spend or invest money. Everyone has different values, and as long as people are being true to them, and creating positive emotions instead of negative ones, I feel that they'll make the right
